Week 9

The year 4/5/6 overnight camp was a great success. The children really enjoyed being able to set themselves up in a tent and to organise themselves so they are ready to camp out. They loved the rotation activities we had organised for them and enjoyed fish and chips and fresh fruit and bickies for supper. Enjoy some of these pictures from camp.

Week 8

This week has been a week of support. The children decided to show their support for the Muslim community and the emergency services. They thought that the ambulance and police officers were amazing. These amazing hearts are going to them this week and we hope they enjoy receiving them in the mail.

We have also been working on our sketching, shading, and drawing skills by completing our own self portraits. The children showed great perseverance and listening skills. Come in and have a look at their awesome creations on display in Room 1A.

This week we have also been having Digital Curriculum Professional development sessions in the hall. The children really enjoyed learning about the vocabulary of robots and systems and enjoyed creating their own coding to make a robot go.

We have also been working on publishing work and making sure it is quality but also done on time. We have got our fantastic Sky diving descriptions published and on display in class. Look at these expressions in the parachuters, aren't they cool!

Term 1
Week 5 and 6

I week 5 we have been focusing on adding detail to our sentences by adding in verbs, adjectives, adverbs, and a setting. The children have got really confident at seeing their simple sentence and moving towards developing compound and complex sentences. Have have seen all children use these details in their writing independently.

Week 6 = SWIM WEEK and sky dive writing. We have had such a busy week with swim week and also writing recounts on Miss Hannah's sky dive. The children went through the recount structure and discussed their details in their sentences especially their introduction which we have been practising to hook the readers in. Here are some pictures of the children posing for their sky dive publishing presentation, come in and have a look at them.
